2016's nominations are open! The tag set is here.
Nominations will close at 23:59 (i.e., the last minute of) 26 March 2016 in EDT. That link should give you the corresponding time in your own time zone.
Nominations have two stages:
Step 2 isn't mandatory, but it's really helpful when I make a large table of where to find all of this year's canons. And that table is helpful for getting other people interested in the pieces YOU want to receive or create a gift in.
And of course, step 0.5 - if you're not quite sure what to nominate, see the brainstorming posts on Dreamwidth and on LiveJournal - and past posts tagged with "brainstorming" - to get and give ideas.
To nominate, go to http://archiveofourown.org/tag_sets/1117 and click the "Nominate" button at the top right. You will need to be signed in with your AO3 account. If you don't have one, request one now at AO3, or ask me.
You will see eight blank spaces for your nominations. You don't have to fill them all in at once.
Very few songs are already listed on the AO3, so you may be creating new fandoms. This means they won't auto-complete or appear in a drop-down menu when you're typing them. That's okay.
The preferred AO3 format for songs and videos is:
Song Name - Artist (Medium)
If you have a specific cover artist in mind, use them.
For example,
Mykonos - Fleet Foxes (Music Video)
Mykonos - Fleet Foxes (Song)
Lilac Wine - Jeff Buckley (Song)
Lilac Wine - Nina Simone (Song)
For some types of music, a different (Medium), such as (Ballad), (Spoken Word Piece), etc, may seem more appropriate. Go with what seems sensible to you. (Song) is an okay catch-all.
Please check the spelling carefully when you enter your nominations.
Once you have submitted nominations, you can edit each one until I've approved it. You can do this by going back to the tag set, clicking "My Nominations", then "Edit". You don't have to choose all eight of your nominations at once - you can enter some nominations, submit them, then come back and fill in the rest a little later, again by using "Edit Nominations".
When I've approved a nomination, it may not show up instantly in the tag set, but should show up within a couple of days. Meanwhile, I'll keep the LJ and DW communities up to date.
When you comment with sources for the music you've nominated, here is what is useful:
-the name of the piece & artist
-a link to some online source (YouTube etc)
-a link to lyrics.
The genre of the song, if you know it, is also helpful.
If you'd rather email me (jukebox.mod@gmail.com) than comment on LJ or DW, that is fine.
This post is also on LiveJournal.
